- The Love Family, or the Church of Jesus Christ at Armageddon, was a U.S. communal religious movement led by Paul Erdmann, who renamed himself Love Israel. The Love Family began in 1968 as a communal household on Queen Anne Hill, Seattle, with their charter being written in 1971. Within the first ten years, it expanded to a network of communal homes and businesses. As more people arrived and settled in the surrounding neighborhood, Erdmann, as the leader, continued to inherit land and homes (primarily from those who joined) in other, more rural areas of Washington state, Alaska, and Hawaii. Most of the property is no longer under the control of Erdmann, having been sold or returned to the original owners via litigation. Sources differ on the Love Family's duration; some claim after a fractious conflict in 1984, the community was reduced to a small fraction residing in suburban Bothell, Washington. According to The Seattle Times and an article written by Serious Israel, the Love Family continued living on their 300-acre (1.2 km2) property in Arlington, Washington. The Love Family flourished on that acreage from 1984 until 2004, when, according to the Seattle Times, some families moved to smaller properties. The Arlington commune supported both a local organic restaurant and an annual festival open to the public called the Garlic Festival, which drew crowds to the property. (en)
